We finished exploring the rest of the Rajasthan State in India (Pushkar – Udaipur – Jodpur – Jaisalmer – Bikaner – Madawa) which was incredibly diverse, colorful, desolate, beautiful, incredibly sad all the while never a shortage of smiles and waves.
* The india people have a great sense of humor and we laughed so much along the journey. One guy asked me if I wanted a tuk tuk ride, I politely declined and he said to me “Awe come on, at least give me a chance to rip you off” 😉
* The cows are overwhelming, they are everywhere and a lovely one even rammed me giving me a head butt (twice), an endearment of love I think (NOT)
* Not only cows but goats, sheep, camels are everywhere 😉
* Trent, Emma and I were the real deal wedding crashers to an Indian wedding, it was amazing, the music, dancing, colors and the groom who looked like he was a dear in headlights, not sure how I would feel heading to my marriage ceremony never meeting my soon to be spouse 😮
* Trent said it perfectly last night, “I think I am in culture shock!” We flew from the extremes of India to the exact opposite in Dubai, the deep conversations about life will continue with the kids!
